Welcome back to the Midwest Legends Podcast for Tom Kelly Pt. 2! This week, Tom takes Russell through his journey of becoming a renowned baseball manager. Although Tom claims he was just thinking about how “not to get fired,” throughout his first managing stint with the Twins in ’87, it’s clear there’s much more genius in his management style then he lets on. Enough genius to lead to the Twins winning it all that very season! Tune in to hear from Tom about why he prioritizes defense, his iconic conversation with Jack Morris before the 10thinning, a surprising story about Kirby Puckett, and much more!
